Description
Cropped this photo several ways. A tight crop made this circa 1865 "German, bank barn" the star. But after much indecision I went with this crop that put the barn in the context of an absolutely gorgeous winter afternoon that saw a high of 70 degress F. Winter days don't get more comfortable than this, here in Kansas.
The last real use of this barn was for horses stabled here as a remount point.
May follow this up with a collage that shows the other sides of this solid, old barn and the handsome old farm house nearby.
Hope you like this special posting for my 200th upload here on Rendo.
Thanks for all your wonderful support. Your comments keep me going.
Bill:)
P.S. I left the file large for good zooming.
P.S.S. This goes with the wind mill I posted yesterday as Before Electrification

Love this one Bill! The red really pops and the tree's shadows add additional interest to this very nice composition!
Great view, Bill! A very good composition, I just love it!
Well it is as wonderful as you told me it was. And I think the crop is fantastic, it looks like a beautiful country painting. Well done on your 200th post. They have ALL been a delight to view. It is going into the 60's here this week as well, it sure is a nice change. Enjoy~~
Wonderful shot!!
Your 200th is a good one. Ya, done good. Looking forward to 200 more, with some done in this area. The Artillery, Infantry and Swabbie Airplane drivers left at zero dark hundred. Last night as we gathered for the Adult Beverage part of the evening, you were in our thoughts and conversation. Hope your ears were burning. Sure is quiet on the hill now. Cheers and best to you, Skipper
Beautiful scene and capture! Congrats on 200 great ones!
Wonderful shot
200! Marvellous! here's to the next 2oo! A superb compo to celebrate.
Beautiful--can't wait for the next 200!!
An absolute cracker of a shot Bill, great colours and a really nice POV, well done!
Wonderful barn, sky, and shadows. Beautiful indeed.
the soft foreground shadows act as excellent leading lines to a well positioned subject, and the crop works very well.. excellent photo and cheers to your 200!
Congratulations on your 200th upload, my friend! I've enjoyed seeing your work very much, and am looking forward to hundreds more from you. :) What a fantastic old barn. It looks like it must have been very well made, to be in such great shape. Excellent capture! The collage will be great. I can't wait to see it!
200! Yea!!!!!! And I've enjoyed every one of them so much! And not only is this well composed for subject matter but the light gives those long shadows that bring even more depth to the shot.
Excellent image, Bill. Congratulations on your Renderosity milestone.
Fantastic image!! Love it!
Beautiful capture and landscape...!!!!
beautiful !
Great colours and composition
Lovely old barn again! Tell ya what the would make a great conversion into a super house.
big congrats Bill on your 200th...smile..and you did so well with this one...its really nice to see the surroundings too
Congratulations on your 200th. It is a great one. I like pictures of old barns and I like the history of the old wind mill.
Very nice image! I like the shadows of the trees in the foreground. :)
Stellar voyage of depth in this shot, enhanced by the long tree shadows that lead the eye directly towards the barn, which looks in pretty good shape for its age, Bill. And congratulations on reaching the big two-oh-oh!
outstanding landscape and composition. congrats on 200 fine entries
Happy 200th Bill, it's been a wonderful, illuminating and most enjoyable journey, I raise a glass to the next leg of the trip. Another outstanding picture, just seems to go on and on forever, could be wrong but is this the part of the country refered to as 'the flatlands', if so can't imagine why! :) Here's to the next 200- cheers my friend.
Wonderful picture!
This barn stands out beautifully.... Aloha
Congratulations on your 200th Bill. Your images are always a joy to see my friend so here's to the next 200. This is just the thing to see on a cold snowy day like today :)
Awesome red! Really stands out in the autumn scene! (Or Winter). These Old barns are such sad sights, but at least you have a few of them still standing. Room dictates that most old farm building are knocked down to make way for the new! Such a shame. Lovely shot, my friend. Rob.
